“Yatta!” Masi Oka will reprise his role as Hiro Nakamura in NBC’s 13-episode revival "Heroes: Reborn", which the network now confirms will premiere in the fall.

“I’m excited to return to my Heroes roots,” said Oka, who currently appears on "Hawaii Five-0". “Hiro Nakamura was such an inspirational role to play, and I’m hoping the fans will enjoy seeing him back on TV.”

“We are thrilled to have Masi back in the Heroes family,” said series overlord Tim Kring. “The character of Hiro Nakamura was such a huge part of the first series’ success, and a gigantic fan favorite. We felt the fans would really love seeing him back in action again.”
